DOXA fans, something for you

Doxa Launches Diving With Legends Book and Watch

From the article:"The Sub 1200T is Doxa’s latest offering, and is a tribute to the Doxa
Sub 300T Conquistador – the first helium release valve (HRV) equipped
dive watch to be offered to the general public back in 1969. The 1200T
is water resistant to 1200 Meters and is equipped with an integrated
helium release valve."

The 1200t is an awesome watch and I really like the logo on this one, but Im not sure I want to go advertising for some guy`s book and on top of that having to pay extra for it...
The book is probably great, no offense intented to the author, but personally I think I would go for the regular Pro unless you`re a die hard collector like Red.

Something about Doxa cases just don't do it for me. Like some people feel about the Oris case but that case I like. I really like the dial, hands and bezel on the Doxa.

Saw too much at the WUS Official forum to ever own one.

Looks like every other Doxa. So what's new?

From what I have read, it includes a HRV and the thickness is different (I forget which way -- thicker or thinner)...

It will be interesting if they do a reissue of the 750T, since not all cases were used in the original issue...

In addition, it will be interesting to see what this does to the preowned prices of the 1000T. I would imagine that it will drive it down.

Especially since they're selling the 1000T new at a "special price."

The difference is that the 1200t comes with the integrated helium escape valve and the thicker GMT bracelet. The case is also a bit thicker to make room for the HEV. Water resistance has been improved from 1000m to 1200m
Other than that they are pretty similar other than some dial options are not avaiable for the 1200t (yet) The 1000t never came as a silver dial like the 1200 offers (Searambler)

Seems awfully pretentious to make and remake watches these watches. Slight changes and nuances don't make a watch more appealing to me.

But I guess the model works for them if they continue to do it. $$MONEY$$ talks p00 p00 walks.

Is that why the Monaco's for sale?

Nope! The Monaco is for sale because I'd rather have the cash than that particular watch. Really like the watch, but not as much as I'd like a few other things.
